Storing and serving homemade baby food

Freeze pureed baby food in clean ice cube trays. Spoon the puree into the trays and cover with plastic wrap. Freeze for 30 days maximum.

Store solids in plastic containers or glass jars. Keep for up to two days in the fridge or one month in the freezer. Label containers with contents and use-by date.

To serve, pop out food cubes into a glass or ceramic bowl. Warm in the microwave or on the stove. Stir well to get rid of hot spots. Test temperature with a clean spoon on your lip before serving to baby. Discard any leftovers – don’t refreeze.
